Applications and SQL Server Database Engineer Location: Kew, TW9 Work Arrangement: Hybrid – 3 days in Kew, 2 days from home Are you early to mid-level in your career as a SQL Server or database professional, with solid T-SQL skills and an interest in scripting and automation? This Applications and SQL Server Database Engineer role offers the chance to deepen your SQL and data expertise while gaining exposure to modern Microsoft tools such as the Power Platform, within a supportive, nationally significant organisation. This is a permanent junior-to-mid-level role, ideal for someone who wants to grow technically, take on increasing responsibility, and learn from experienced colleagues — without pressure to already be an expert in every tool. About the Role You’ll join a small, collaborative Business Systems team supporting internal applications and databases used by hundreds of staff. The core focus of the role is SQL Server, T-SQL and data-related work, including queries, fixes, checks and small enhancements. Alongside this, you’ll have the opportunity to build experience with Power Automate and Power Apps over time, supported by mentoring and training — but this is not essential to join.

Essential Skills • Conversant with MS SQL Server 2016 or later. • Confident use of T-SQL (queries, updates, basic optimisation) • Some scripting experience (e.g. Python, PowerShell, C# or similar). • Interest in working with data, systems and problem-solving.<
